You could as well point out Lorraine's stumbling, bumbling, emptyheaded displays at campaign events....the field was weak but Billy shined by far the brightest.
I will state, no surprise to most of you, that history will likely be a kinder judge than this record of the day (HTH/WHT). Look at the front page of that paper today, the Kapiolani project, in that construction time period, doesn't happen without a hands on Mayor who leads with a chainsaw.
Every leader has their strengths and weaknesses, Dante, Lorraine, Steve, Harry, and now BIlly. All can be praised and criticized. If you were around, reflect back on those periods in our islands history and describe a more dynamic tenure with the kind of major accomplishments that Billy can take the credit for.
If you can't wrap your mind around that then go read "The Prince". It may help.
